Thanks a lot - and have a good, most productive time in V. Though taking breaks from winter's not necessary at all at the mo; at least from a Munich point of view. Foehn wind galore...*shakeshead*
And I'm sure we'll get our chance at chatting eventually, may it be in HRO or M ;o).

Hey, I got your parcel. Thank you. :D

You might be late each year, but at least you are creative with your presents. I can't wait to do something with the apple vinegar and the oil. :D

Thanks.

*hugs*

Also, I think I am through with the Carcasonne packaging. I don't have any additional sets. ;)

Thanks again and good luck overcoming your Facebook addiction. I am glad I never started there. My RL folks need to stick to my mails. ;)

And hey back to you :o)!

I did my very best with your prezzie ;o)), and I'm so glad you like it! How did your first endeavour with the oil and vinegar go? What did yo use it for, exactly?

I'm soooooo curious *grins*!

And you're right about that facebook-thing; I've got to get a grip on that asap. One of my New Year resolutions!

Oh, I only used the oil so far. I made some rice with nuts and pine seeds and corn and peppers and carrots and I used the walnut oil. It was tasty.

Good luck with your New Year resolution. :D
